Question

What is obtained on heating $NaHC{O}_3$?

• A. $NaOH$
• B. $NaCl$
• C. $N{a}_{2}C{O}_3$
• D. $NaHC{O}_3$

Answer 1

The correct option is C $N{a}_{2}C{O}_3$

On heating sodium bicarbonate, sodium carbonate is obtained.
The decomposition reaction is given as:
$NaHC{O}_3\to$
$N{a}_{2}C{O}_3+H_{2}O+CO$
